2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the steps of: determining, in the step of looking-up the at least a portion of the prescription token, whether the at least one eligibility record is contained in the eligibility database or is not contained in the eligibility database; and generating at least one eligibility record by the eligibility database based on the prescription token when the eligibility record is not contained in the database.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the step of updating comprises the step of processing the eligibility update notification by the benefit processor to revise the eligibility record.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the coverage benefit is selected from the group consisting of: an insured coverage and a non-insured coverage; and further comprising the steps of: determining whether the coverage benefit is an insured coverage or a non-insured coverage; determining by the pharmacy gateway a first discount per the coverage benefit and the discount coupon, for the drug prescription, when the coverage benefit is the insured coverage; and determining by the pharmacy gateway a second discount per solely the discount coupon, for the drug prescription, when the coverage benefit is the non-insured coverage.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising the steps of: wherein the eligibility database comprises a plurality of eligibility records, and each of the eligibility records of the plurality, respectively, comprise the prescription drug identity, the drug patient identity, the prescription refill date, and the cell number relationally linked to the drug patient identity; filtering the plurality of the eligibility records of the eligibility database at a date in time, based on the date in time and relation to the prescription refill date of each of the eligibility records; retrieving a subset of the plurality, each of the eligibility records of the subset, respectively, comprise the prescription drug identity, the prescription refill date relative to the date in time, and the cell number relationally linked to the respective drug patient identity and the prescription drug identity; looking-up the prescription drug identity of the subset in the discount database to obtain a discount coupon for each respective one of the prescription drug identity of the subset; retrieving a respective one of the discount coupon for each respective one of the prescription drug identity of the subset; sending the respective one of the discount coupon to the cell number relationally linked to the respective drug patient identity and the respective drug identity in the subset of the eligibility records; repeating the step of sending the respective one of the discount coupon for respective ones of the cell number of each of the eligibility records of the subset; repeating, for all of the respective ones of the prescription drug identity, the steps of retrieving a subset, looking-up the prescription drug identity, retrieving the discount coupon, and sending the discount coupon.
